Greener Builder 2014: Climate of Change

The What: Join leading experts at Greener Builder 2014 organized by the USGBC Northern California Chapter. The conference will set the stage for a high-profile discussion at the intersection of green building and technology. This year’s theme is Climate of Change, and will feature sessions that address LEED v4 credits and implementation, healthy buildings, technology trends, energy policy, green retrofits, why some projects go deep green and others break down, innovative new products, life-cycle analysis, and more.

There will be three session tracks: LEED v4, Energy & Policy, and Cutting Edge. Representatives from government agencies such as the Department of the Environment, City and County of San Francisco, and StopWaste, Alameda County will discuss mandated changes and city driven green retrofit programs. Representatives from the design and construction community such as Integral Group and SHARP Development Company will discuss topics ranging from tech trends in smart buildings, to healthy buildings and communities, and zero energy cost buildings. 600 plus attendees are expected to attend so get ready for some serious green networking.
